HOUSTON -- After traveling more than 4,000 miles to Portland, Ore., and back home to Fayetteville last week, the Arkansas Razorbacks' basketball team is on the road again to play former Southwest Conference rival Houston at 6:30 tonight.
The Razorbacks (5-1) and Cougars (5-1) are meeting at Texas Southern's H&PE Arena, where Houston is playing its home games while Hofheinz Pavilion is undergoing a $60 million renovation.
After the Razorbacks went 2-1 at the Phil Knight Invitational -- also known as the PK80 --by beating Oklahoma and Connecticut and losing to North Carolina, the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville is playing a fourth consecutive game away from Walton Arena before the SEC schedule for the first time in 11 years.
